You do not indicate if you must have a handset that will work with a certain mobile operator. If it's Sprint my first suggestion would be to go to

Go to the "phone finder" and tick off anything that is important to you. Unfortunately for current models you may be forced to get more than you wanted. There are at present very few non-color phones available. The best you're likely going to do is to find a model that is a low-end introductory model as that will likely have the least amount of "features" such as cameras etc. There are still for certain technologies simpler phones such as the Nokia 1112 or Nokia 1100 which are non-color phones but they are for the T-Mobile or cingular service and not for Sprint if that's what you must have.
